Have Chilled Out Half-Term With Snozone

Monday, 19 October 2009

The indoor real snow centre will host a range of fun activities both on and off the slope for children of all ages to take part in throughout the October break.

Every day from Monday to Friday (26th - 30th October) SNO!zone will host a 'kids' corner' in the SNO!bar from 11am-4pm where kids can try their hand at creative crafts such as origami, face painting, balloon modelling and a design a t-shirt competition.

In addition, the 24th-25th October and 31st October - 1st November will see the circus come to SNO!zone with circus skills workshops in the SNO!bar.

Kids can also have a go on SNO!zone's snowboard simulator to see how long they can stay on to be in with the chance of winning £200 worth of lessons or slope time at SNO!zone.

As well as these fun activities families can also get active on the slopes at SNO!zone by taking part in sledging or ice sliding or skiing and snowboarding on the 170m long slope.

"We've come up with a number of exciting things to do from fun on the slope to circus skills that give kids the chance to do something different this half-term."

All SNO!bar activities (excluding the snowboard simulator) are free for children to take part in.
